Don, >> Timing for what? preroll? << Typically GPI's are set to go instantaneously. Pre-rolls aren't accomplished with GPI's. Typically they're used for things like triggering ADO's or Chryons. That being the case, a 60 frame adjustment is a very wide window! The EVO is the first device I've heard of where the docs actually suggest using a GPI to trigger "editing". Sony provides the pre-roll codes etc. and are handled through serial communications. Typically your edit controller sends the appropriate signals to the decks for all these functions. Normally GPIs are used only as triggering devices. -JE
